The Writing Prompt Boot Camp

Enter the WD Your Story Contest For a Chance to Be Published

In every issue of WD, we run a column called Your Story—a place readers can share their most creative responses (in the form of a 700-word short story or a 25-word first liner, depending on the contest) to an editor-selected picture or sentence prompt. It’s free to enter, and the winning entry(s) get published in Writer’s Digest (So, win-win!).

Think you’ve got the writing chops to stand out? Information about how to enter, the latest contest, and past winners can all be found here: Writer’s Digest Your Story Contest.
